[clue-talk] /bin/command.com shell for Linux?

[Jim Ockers]

Hi,

OK this is partly tongue in cheek but I had a DOS/Windows
user (he's a programmer, and not stupid, just unfamiliar
with Linux/Unix shells) wonder about a command.com shell for
Linux.

Obviously whoever would use such a thing probably doesn't
care about all the Great Wonderful things you can do with
bash.  They just want something familiar they can use to
move around the directory tree and create/delete files and
move files around.  I guess.

Anyway does anyone know of such a shell?  Or maybe a .tcshrc
that implements fairly extensive DOS syntax?  :)  If no one
has any better ideas I'll just give him my .tcshrc so that
del, copy, etc. work.

I had to chuckle at the notion of a /bin/command.com shell. :)

Thanks,
Jim
